P6Hx23-2.15PROCEDURE: EMPLOYMENT - CAREER SERVICE PERSONNEL

I.Position Description Requirement

A classification description shall be written for each class of career service positions and approved by the president.

II.Performance Evaluations (Performance Appraisal Reports)

Every career service employee who has completed a six (6) month probationary period shall be given a performance evaluation report that shall result in one of the following:

A.If rated as satisfactory or above, the employee may be placed on non-probationary status.

B.If rated as conditional, the employee will be re-evaluated within ninety (90) days; and if rated satisfactory, be placed on non-probationary status.

C.If rated as unsatisfactory, the employee will be terminated.

III.Overlap

If approved by the president, two (2) employees may be employed in the same approved, budgeted, and classified position for up to two (2) weeks for training purposes, unless otherwise extended by the President.

IV.Acting Appointment to Fill a Vacant Regularly Established Position

When a position is vacant or is expected to be vacant for at least two (2) months due to the resignation or request for leave of an employee or other reason, the president may recommend the appointment of a person on an acting basis, for as long as it is deemed appropriate by the President, who may or may not meet the education or experience requirements of the position.

V.Budgeted Part-Time Positions

A.A budgeted part-time position, other than Other Personal Services (OPS), is one which requires at least twenty (20) hours per week, but less than 37-1/2 hours per week.

B.All budgeted part-time positions are classified and individuals filling these positions shall meet the qualifications required.

C.An employee in a budgeted part-time position will be paid at the same hourly rate as such employee would be paid in a comparable full-time budgeted position.

VI.Classification and Reclassification of Positions

A.A classification study is a formal procedure in which all career service positions within the college are audited or evaluated. This occurs as a result of a major reorganization or major changes in career service personnel functions or assignments. The president may request this study, as required. Career service personnel may appeal to the president concerning Collegewide classification determinations.

B.A reclassification review is a formal procedure of determining whether a new position should be added or a current position(s) should be increased in grade, decreased in grade, left in the existing grade, or eliminated. The reclassification procedure is set forth in District Board of Trustees' Rule 6Hx23-2.023.

C.The president shall approve all titles for College positions.

VII.Administration of the Classification System

A.The human resources department has the responsibility for maintaining and updating the classification system. This includes responding to requests for reclassification of present positions, preparing new position classifications, recommending levels of classification, and performing periodic audits of all classifications.

B.A report of the classification work performed by the human resources department will be submitted periodically to the president.

VIII.Emergency Work

If a non-exempt career service employee is required to come back to perform emergency work for the college, the employee shall be paid for a minimum of four (4) hours. Any hours in excess of forty (40) during the week shall be compensated at one and one-half (1-1/2) the employee's regular hourly rate of pay. Emergency work is defined as a task which, because of its nature, must be performed during a time when employees would not normally be available for work.

IX.A career service employee will not be paid for a holiday(s) unless the employee works or is on an approved leave of absence with pay with respect to the last workday before and the first workday after the holiday(s).
